In our continuing search for unique and interesting robot toys of all types, RoboToys is now importing selected Tin Toy Robots from storied Japanese manufacturers such as Metal-House Ltd. Founded in 1943 as Marumiya, this little firm went on to provide both manufacturing and designs of Robot Tin Toys for the great Japanese exporters of the 50’s and 60’s such as Horikawa, Yonezawa, Nomura and Daiwa.
In 1989, this family run business changed its name to Metal-House and it is still carrying on the tradition of excellence in design and manufacturing for which it was always known.
These toys are new, of Japanese origin. Some are recreations of the classics and others are new interpretations of those historic designs. Each is beautifully crafted and finished, a testament to Japanese Tin Toy craft that will surely increase in value in the heart of its owner.
